A/C Repair Service for Your Mercury Grand Marquis

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mercury Grand Marquis A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Mercury vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1990 Mercury A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Mercury Grand Marquis

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mercury Grand Marquis A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Grand Marquis

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Mercury's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis A/C recharges.

Common Mercury Grand Marquis A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mercury Grand Marquis A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Grand Marquis.

Frequently Asked Questions for 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Grand Marquis air conditioning colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my Grand Marquis A/C blowing hot air? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Grand Marquis's A/C system.
  • Does my Grand Marquis A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Grand Marquis does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • Why does my Grand Marquis have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Grand Marquis creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Grand Marquis’s A/C only work when the car is moving? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Grand Marquis may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
